For those of you who wished to see my Countdown episode on demand, you're out of luck. By now you've missed the deadline. However, the Youtube video that I posted of it is blocked in the UK.

As some of you probably know, Cindy Stowell, a US Jeopardy champion, who ended her run today qualified for the Tournament of Champions, will not be able to appear. This is because she had cancer and passed away. Most recently though, Annie Humphries qualified for the quarter finals of Countdown this...
